Actually herc doesn't really make him easier, at all. Ultron, for a bunch of reasons, is better for him than herc. I'd guess that some of the new champs, like gorr would be great too, for similar reasons; you need a champ with a lot of buffs *and* a champ with a lot of debuffs to make his wounded phase easier.And having someone who heals is also useful as you will normally need to take block damage, hence Ultron.But, herc is great for a bunch of the paths to him, but you really want someone different for fighting him.
